Maxscript: Labeling a Slider Manipulator

Tools 3ds Max
1

Hey everyone,

This is my first post on Tech-Artists, but I’ve using the search function for a long time and finding it extremely helpful! I’m just getting into Maxscript. Currently I’m unable to find a way to set or edit a label for a slider manipulator. I looked through Autodesk’s docs on slider manipulators but I don’t see a command for that operation. I’ve also done a few forum searches here, but I’ve no luck. Can I really not edit the label? So sad. Oh now that I look at it more closely it also appears I can’t edit the snap value. Two operations I’d really like to code out. Any idea’s for solutions would be fantastic! I’m hoping it’s just a silly nooby mistake, seems like it should be an editable/on create parameter through max script.

Thanks a lot for any advise!

As suspected, it’s a nooby mistake. Sorry! I guess there’s more than one place to look for commands in Maxscript. Hope no one wasted time replying.

Just in case anyone else was wondering:

showproperties $sliderManipulator001
.value : float
.minVal : float
.maxVal : float
.xPos : float
.yPos : float
.width : float
.hide : boolean
.sldName : string
.snapToggle : boolean
.snapVal : float
.mouseState : enum
false

Feel free to close this thread if desired. Thanks anyway.
